Title: The discursive constitution of Pakistani women: the articulation of gender, nation, and Islam.
Abstract: I disrupt notions of the passive, unidimensional Islamic
by outlining the discursive constitution of gendered subjectivtities and
practices in Pakistan. I trace the shifting intersection of discourses of
gender, nationhood, and Islam, and demonstrate how this intersection both
effects an ideological tool - Pakistani Woman - and incites women's
resistance.
